Zelenskyi: My children stay in Kyiv during the war

The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said that his children, daughter Oleksandra and son Kyrylo, remain in Kyiv, despite threats related to a full-scale war. He made this statement during an interview, emphasizing the importance of family support and personal responsibility to the country.

He stated this in an interview with the Italian TV channel RaiNews24. According to the president, children are the strongest Ukrainians. Answering the question of host Paolo Petrecki, what the three years of the great war were like for him, Zelensky said:

"As for every person. President Zelensky is the same person as all our people. It was not easy for us. I have a lot of respect for our people, who are just great people. They defended Ukraine and their homes from the very beginning of the war. Each of our homes is our country. It is very important that people persevered and showed the whole world that they are fighting just for their own. On the battlefield, of course, our heroes are the military who protect us. But the strongest Ukrainians today are our children. They pass this test unfairly. It's really scary when you see how our children grow up right before your eyes."

Volodymyr and Olena Zelenskyi have two children — 19-year-old Oleksandra and 11-year-old Kyrylo. The daughter is getting a higher legal education in Kyiv, and the son is a schoolboy.

"This is my happiness. One of the most positive things that can happen to a person in life is children. They are in Kyiv. They go through this war together with other children. When the sirens sound, when rockets attack, they descend into bomb shelters in schools and universities. But this is the reality. I am very glad that they are in Ukraine. This is an example to others. If there are no children on the streets, if we cannot see their eyes, then the question arises, who are we fighting for? We are fighting for their values, yes, and for our own, but first of all, for the future of our children. And it is very important that they are in Ukraine," he said.

The family of Zelensky - the latest news

As we reported, in the spring of 2024, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyi, spoke frankly about the life of his children during the war. According to him, his 11-year-old son Kyrylo often asks when the war will end.

Zelensky said that during the full-scale invasion, his children were in Ukraine. They did not go abroad, like most Ukrainians, despite constant shelling by the Russians.
